BRE Building Elements Floors and flooring Performance, diagnosis, maintenance, repair and the avoidance of defects
Author: P W Pye, H W Harrison | Size: 12.65 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: IHS BRE press | Year: 2003 | pages: 313 | ISBN: 1860816312
Revised edition (2003) - Floors and flooring describes the materials and production methods and criteria which are used in the construction of these major elements of buildings. A more specific purpose is to draw the attention of readers to the features of floors and flooring which ensure good performance, and to the things that go wrong so that they can be avoided. Drawing from BRE experience, this book provides the building professional with a checklist of points of concern, and where to obtain further information and advice. Particular effort has been given to providing the reader with visual illustrations where they will enhance points made in the text: over 200 photographs and 170 drawings of floors and floor construction details; also case studies, feature panels and checklists. A surveyor’s inspection list appears at the end of each of the chapters on floor types and coverings. Includes: Appendix A How to identify less recognisable floors and their substrates; Appendix B How to choose a flooring, plus 10 pages of references and further reading. 310 pages.

Description :
This book takes a fresh, student-oriented approach to teaching the material covered in the senior- and first-year graduate-level matrix structural analysis courses taken by civil engineering majors. Unlike traditional texts for this course that are difficult to read, Kassimali takes special care to provide understandable and exceptionally clear explanations of concepts, step-by-step procedures for analysis, flowcharts, and interesting and modern examples, producing a technically and mathematically accurate presentation of the subject.

ABOUT THIS BOOK
Multifunctional Metallic Hollow Sphere Structures are an emerging new material category, belonging like metal foams to the class cellular metals. Thanks to their advantageous mechanical and sound absorbing properties, Multifunctional Metallic Hollow Sphere Structures are very promising for various applications and our technological knowledge makes them ready for industrial usage.
This reference gives a complete overview on this new materials class, the fundamentals, the applications and the perspective for future use. It provides the foundations for a profound understanding (production and processing), their physical properties (surface properties and stalility) and applicaltion (in particular for sound absorption and chemical adsorption in structural parts).
The book is written for material scientists, product designers and developers as well as academic researches and scientists.

hey guys check this spreadsheet, its simple but a step by step process and it allows you to investigate to it.Its a metric version and based on ACI code. Guys if you like this stuff just post a reply. Maybe I'll send of my other spreadsheets. It is actually Designed by myself and please read a note to it.

Reinforced Concrete Design : A Practical Approach
(July 30 2009) by Svetlana Brzev (Author), John Pao (Author)
Product Description
This book covers the design of main reinforced concrete structural members in accordance with the limit states design method, and is based on the new CSA Standard A23.3-04 Design of Concrete Structures. The load provisions are consistent with the National Building Code of Canada 2005.
The material in this book is presented in the logical order in which structural design would be performed in practice. The book takes a non-calculus based, practical approach to the analysis and design of reinforced concrete members, rather than a high-level theoretical approach. The authors use modern analysis and design procedures that are consistent with good design practice, teaching, research, and consulting experience related to structural design and rehabilitation of concrete and masonry structures, including buildings, municipal and industrial facilities.
John Pao, MEng, PEng, Struct.Eng, is the President of Bogdonov Pao Associates Ltd. of Vancouver, BC, and BPA Group of Companies with offices in Seattle and Los Angeles. Mr. Pao has extensive consulting experience related to design of reinforced concrete buildings, including high-rise residential and office buildings, shopping centers, parking garages, and institutional buildings.
About the Author
The book is a collaborative effort between an academic and a practising engineer and reflects their unique perspectives on the subject.
Svetlana Brzev, Ph.D., P.Eng. is an Instructor at the Civil Engineering Department of the British Columbia Institute of Technology, Burnaby, BC. She has over 20 years of combined
teaching, research, and consulting experience related to structural design and rehabilitation of concrete and masonry structures, including buildings, municipal and industrial facilities.

58 participants met under a workshop sponsored by NATO under Science for Peace Project SfP977484 during May 17-21, 2004. The participants included a selection of leaders in the field of strong motion seismology and instrumentation and response of structures to strong shaking. The state of the art in ground motion observation systems and the future directions in the field were discussed at the workshop.
Outstanding problems for strong motion instrumentation identified at this workshop include:
1.the need for records of strong shaking very close to the causative fault for earthquakes of all mechanisms;
2.how to use simple observations of the geology and geophysics at a site to significantly reduce the uncertainties in ground motion
prediction;
3.to obtain records of structural degradation during a strong earthquake;
4.to understand extreme ground motions and to reduce the uncertainties in probabilistic seismic hazard analysis
5.the need for blind predictions to validate methods of ground motion prediction, basin response prediction, and structural response modeling.

INTRODUCTION
As discussed in earlier chapters the main advantages of structural steel over other construction materials are its strength and ductility. It has a higher strength to cost ratio in tension and a slightly lower strength to cost ratio in compression when compared with concrete. The stiffness to weight ratio of steel is much higher than that of concrete. Thus, structural steel is an efficient and economic material in bridges. Structural steel has been the natural solution for long span bridges since 1890, when the Firth of Forth cantilever bridge, the world's major steel bridge at that time was completed. Steel is indeed suitable for most span ranges, but particularly for longer spans. Howrah Bridge, also known as Rabindra Setu, is to be looked at as an early classical steel bridge in India. This cantilever bridge was built in 1943. It is 97 m high and 705 m long. This engineering marvel is still serving the nation, deriding all the myths that people have about steel. [See Fig. 1]
